An issue report submitted to Google’s tracker earlier today made the latest demand for multi-user on phones, and this time Google responded, with a dev marking the issue closed and noting, “the development team has implemented this feature and it will be available as a part of the next public build.”

Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean that the multi-user support will be identical to what we’ve seen with tablets, nor that it will address all the possible fine-grained account restrictions some Android users are asking for, but this still sounds like a big change in the right direction, and we’re itching for the chance to see just how this will be implemented.
